Here at Team Fake Bake, we got super excited when we received some calls asking us to help some stylish names get ready for the British Fashion Awards at London’s Royal Albert Hall. And it certainly included the great and the good from every style generation. Giorgio Armani, now 84, was there to accept his Lifetime Achievement Award, accompanied by Julia Roberts and Cate Blanchett, no less.
Aside the
huge names like Donatella Versace and
Christopher Kane, who won the Designers’
Designer Award, up-and-coming Daniel Lee, who last year took over at Bottega Veneta, won four awards. Music
is never far from fashion and Janet
Jackson rubbed shoulders with local rapper Little Simz, as every table rocked and no doubt compiled their own
Best Dressed lists.
Who topped ours?
Jourdan Dunn has always been a favourite at Team Fake Bake and once more she ruled
the red carpet…
Elsa Hosk took a brave stance and we are
completely in awe of her angelic golden tan…
Our
stateside style sister Olivia Culpo looked
elegant in Ralph and Russo…
Adut Akech took home the Model of the Year Award, and shows us why in Valentino…
Naomi Campbell received a Lifetime
Award and her status as Style Icon shines through in Alexander
McQueen…
Amber Valetta showed us how to do timeless chic in Stella McCartney…
Our favourite hair and beauty look has to go to
Julia Roberts, who showed how to rock an Armani jumpsuit in Hollywood style. Soft waves, a coral lip, a
subtle glow and turquoise earrings? Go on then…
As always,
our Fake Bake tanners were on hand
to get their own stylish gang ready and this year outshone other teams by
proving a Fake Bake pro tan
literally looks good on everyone.
Our Global Creative Consultant James Harknett
worked his magic on Sarah Jossel, Beauty
Director at the Sunday Times Style magazine - our fave #BeautyBoss…
And also on David Gandy, fashion legend and Best
Dressed Man at the Awards. In our humble opinions…
Our amazing The Tan Expert, Eloise, created this
gorgeous tanning look on super-blogger Danielle
Vanier…
And Nadine Sereaton created this bespoke
tanning look on model Alice Amelia
Jeffrey, who caught the lens of every photographer on the carpet…
We caught up
with Nadine to ask her about the
event and why it is always a good idea to opt for a professional Fake Bake spray tan when the occasion is this special.
Nadine told us:
“Helping get
Alice Ameila ready for this event
was so exciting. I work with her on a regular basis and she is an absolute
sweetheart. Her career is really, really taking off and so it was wonderful the
next day to catch all of her red carpet
shots alongside the very best names in the fashion industry.
Why go for a
Fake Bake professional tan? I really
pride myself in terms of the work I do so that every client who comes to me for
a pro tan gets the same level of service. At the moment I am tanning people for
all sorts of occasions from day to evening events, and a pro tan takes some of the work out of your beauty
prep.
Even the
most seasoned tanners enjoy a professional tan as we aim to create a perfect, flawless finish whilst opting
for a shade that really suits your skin tone. There is no need to worry about
streaking or patchiness if you are a tanning newbie, and it really does save
time. The results are long lasting, too, which my clients really appreciate
when they have more than one event or party to attend.
Finally, I
have noticed that a Fake Bake pro tan really
lifts the spirits of each of my clients: during these colder, winter days, a
seamless tan really gives you confidence and makes dressing for an occasion a
real pleasure. For me, it is lovely to be a part of that experience.”
We are
pretty certain no-one here on the team will make it to the British Fashion Awards as a nominee any time soon, but we are
definitely upping our style game for the office party.
It doesn’t
matter where you go in the world, at the end of the night you always end up
like Naomi and Adut.
Isn’t that
what Christmas is all about? Love, actually....
